🚨 It’s Tuesday, March 10th at 6:30PM which means it is now TOO LATE to safely mail your ballot back.

If you still have your mail ballot, do NOT put it in a mailbox.

Instead, you can:

📦 Take it to a secure drop box so election officials receive it directly

🗳 Bring it to your polling place, surrender it, and vote in person

Need help getting there?
📩 DM this account and we’ll help arrange a ride to a drop box or to your polling place.

Your vote matters — make sure it counts.
